THE custom of pastors of church
es taking rest during the heated
term is all very well for clergymen,
and congregation, and we insist
that those other christian workers,
the members of the Salvation Army,
also indulge in a vacation. The
poor Salvationists certainly require
a respite from their arduous labors.
If the man who occupies a pulpit
but an hour one day every week,
and talks to intelligent and sympa-
thetic friends in a clean and well
ventilated church needs rest dur
ing the heated term, how much
more do they need vacation who
sing and exhort most vigorously
every day, who vainly try to blow
melody from cracked horn, who
jingle the tambourine bells more in
dustriously than the regulation end
man, and who pose on their knees
in the dust of the roads The
brazen bugle also needs a rest, and
while unfortunately it is not dumb
animal, why should man not be
kind to it |? We would think also
that the Hallelujah Lassies would
absolutely demand rest-rest for
their arms, their lungs, and their
laws. at least. Patti would have
been in her grave a generation ago
if she had sung as much in month
as the lassies in blue jerseys and
Army bonnets sing in aweek. The
weather is hot and poor miserable
sinners are dropping and sweltering
but the Salvation soldiers, from the
big general down to the ambitious
cadet, 90 right along, defying the
sun while they assault the sulphur
Gus home of heat. They seem to
think there is no rest for the Saliva
tionists, and that vacations, picnics
and shade are not for them. The
public is kind and sympathetic; it is
really and sincerely DESTROYS that
the Salvation Army shall take va
cation. No right thinking man or
woman who has witnessed the labors
of the Army, or who has listened to
the tired and painful sounds of that
sad and weary horn, will interpose
any objection to the Salvationlsts
closing the barracks and taking a
vacation until they have rested full
" and there has come a decided
change in the temperature.

lis the world growing better or

Jersey minister preached the other
Sunday. The two-column report
of the sermon contains nothing to
indicate that the world is growing

in the report to show that men are

II. 8. Munger's Gin Machinery.


In another place in this paper will
be found the report of the committee
appointed at the late Texas State FAN
and Exposition to examine the exhibit
Of II. s. Munger. In this connection
we wish to say that Mr. Munger
made the first five ma
chimes in 1883 at Mexia. and the
next year twenty and the following
year, 1885, $50. During these years
he has ne, err had complete machine
lett in his shop at the end of the sea-
son, aud has never yet been able to
supply the demand. He has his
machinery now IN successful operation
at many points, which are of the Ca
pacity to handle from ten to two hun
dred bales per day, which, however, is
not the full capacity, which will reach
five hundred bales if desired.
Mr.. Munger is in receipt of letters
daily bearing testimony as to the mer-
its of the machines. He has just made
and shipped to-day double box press
for next seasons work, to go with a
ten gin outfit, which shows the in
creasing demand. But read the re-
port of the committee.
